Fractio selects practitioners who have expertise in their respective fields and can assist founding teams in achieving more with less by accelerating knowledge transfer through guidance and expertise in implementation work.

This takes a unique mindset of people who are thinkers but also builders and doers, and who can make their skills available to its startup subscribers on a fractional basis. This includes practitioners in product development, business operations, people management, digital marketing, and sales enablement.

Fractionals are paid fair market value for their skills, and collectively, we embody a sense of reciprocity in capability and intention for the startups we set out to support. Together, Fractio works to bridge gaps that can improve the survivability and scalability of startups while imparting the knowledge that can enable their internal team dynamics, culture, and missions to thrive, while our processes allow them to reduce waste in time, skill, and opportunity. In other words, by fractionalizing your skills on a usage model, we fill the early-stage gap from high performers for startups that need it to improve their success rate too.

Our fractional culture is inspired by co-op values. As a member of our platform and 1099 contractor of Fractio, you earn at least 90% of the revenue generated on the Fractio platform from the startups you contribute to, while your monthly fee contributes to the operating expenses of your use of the platform. We ensure transparency about how these fees contribute to the platform’s sustainability.

Please note that due to demand, we must screen all applications, but if you make it through the screening process, you’ll receive more information on our mission, onboarding process, and transparent pricing for joining.


There are two ways to get involved in our mission.

We understand your personal goals related to working with startups are multifaceted. That’s why we offer a fractional commitment model for joining our platform. As a fractional practitioner, you can make your skills available on your terms. On our platform, you are a 1099 contractor of Fractio who actively contributes to our work and can be a part of something bigger while maintaining flexibility to scale your work up or down.

As a valued member of our platform, you earn a significant portion, at least 90%, of the revenue generated on the Fractio platform from the startups you contribute to. This aligns with our co-op-inspired values and ensures that your hard work is duly rewarded. Your monthly fee, on the other hand, contributes to the operating expenses associated with your use of the platform. Once your application is accepted, we provide full transparency on how these fees contribute to the platform’s sustainability.

Our platform operates on a cooperative culture that spreads the operating costs of practicing as a fractional, allowing us to keep our costs low for everyone. This fosters a collaborative environment where you can thrive in the fair market work you do, and the startups you support can afford your services through our usage-based pricing model.
